Interesting penned work..Enjoyed reading this one..Some died with them on and some died because they are not on..My husband was not wearing one and ended up with a broken back..Compression fracture..He has had agonizing pain since..Thanks for the encouraging review of my Haiku..Sara

Very thought-provoking write, Russell. My mother hated seat belts because a friend died wearing one. If she'd been able to get out of the car, she would probably have survived. I'm throwing caution to the wind and recognizing few "limits of safety." So when we going skydiving? LOL Love, Carolyn
